All Options:

  • AIn which both upper and lower limit are not included in class frequency
  • BIn which lower limit is not included class frequency
  • CIn which upper limit is not included in class frequency
  • DNone of the above

Detailed Solution & Explanation

In classification of data, a continuous frequency series can be structured as an inclusive or exclusive series: - **Inclusive Series**: The upper limit of a class is included in the class itself (e.g., in a class of $10-19$, an observation of $19$ is included in this class). - **Exclusive Series**: The class intervals are defined such that the upper limit of one class is equal to the lower limit of the next class (e.g., $10-20, 20-30\displaystyle ). In this system, an observation equal to the upper limit of a class is **excluded** from that class and instead included in the next class as its lower limit. For example, the value $20 is excluded from $10-20\displaystyle and included in $20-30. Thus, in an exclusive series, the upper limit of a class is not included in the class frequency. This matches Option C. Hence, **Option C** is the correct answer.
